The overall goal of the Quality Maintenance Pillar of TPM is to maintain your equipment in perfect condition in order to produce a perfect product. The Quality Maintenance pillar of TPM focuses on establishing equipment conditions with the goal of avoiding quality defects. To accomplish this, the Quality Maintenance Pillar uses the tools of Six Sigma to identify conditions that affect quality, establish a baseline for those conditions, and to create a process for periodic monitoring of those conditions.

This training session explores the integration of TPM and the tools of Six Sigma to provide a well-ordered approach for acquiring total process control. Applying both of these methodologies in tandem presents today’s most powerful means of achieving your equipment performance goals of “zero breakdown” and “zero defects” with minimum maintenance costs. (Note, this is an advanced workshop and requires participants to have a working knowledge of TPM and Six Sigma.)

AVAILABLE FORMATS:

• Workshop: classroom learning and simulation
